Strike 4,985 Posted January 26 1 minute ago, Death said: I've pointed out three things: 1.) Trump is following a similar playbook that Hitler use to push Germany into a dictatorship. 2.) Trump is following a similar playbook that was used to destroy democracy in Hungary. 3.) We're moving toward a second Gilded Age in this country, where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. I've never said anything about us heading into another world war or concentration camps and exterminating people. The similarities can't be denied. Autocracy. Dictatorship. Oligarchy. I've detailed how we get there and pointed to the wheels in motion to speed this along. It is up to Americans and those who cherish our democracy to stand up to wanna-be tyranny. Yeah man. You're so right. A congressman already introduced a resolution to allow Trump to serve a third term. What's next? Human Sacrifice? Dogs and Cats living together? Mass Hysteria!!!!

Trump stacked the Supreme Court, has censored health organizations set up to conduct research and educate and warn the public, has threatened to shut down media entities that disagree with him, such as ABC, surrounded himself with billionaires and unqualified toadies and cronies, vowed vengeance upon his opponents and done myriad things that democracy-hating communist crybabies like you try to project onto the left.

It's autocracy and tyranny. Not sure what the vocabulary disconnect here, but here you are wildly lashing out and throwing your usual haymakers of hissy-fit nastiness. I've laid out the moments in history that led to dictatorships, autocracy, oligarchy and other forms of government in which power is heavily centered in one place and abuses occur, and I've noted the steps that the current administration is taking, ones that led to those aforementioned undesirable forms of government. The similarities are terrifying, but I've never asserted that the end game is the same as it was for Nazi Germany. I haven't made the leap to concentration camps and extermination. This is looking more like a potential Hungary than a Nazi Germany, but similar playbooks were used to get to where they are, and there is plenty of evidence that Trump and MAGA is using that playbook. It is undeniable that Trump has shown admiration for leadership in Hungary and Russia. It is what it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm for smaller government, lower taxes, oil and gas, a mighty military, supporting businesses, clamping down on illegal immigration and a lot of conservative things. I'm a bit more liberal on social issues, but "overreach" is a great word to apply here. I'm for a strong two-party system of checks and balances, one that people on both sides have to work together to come up with solutions, and that to me is how a democracy works. I don't viciously hate on conservatives and don't respect those who do; I'm concerned with how MAGA viciously hates on Democrats. It has reached an unhealthy level. Sure, there are lefties with an unhealthy dislike for the right, but they're not running the country right now. The Republican Party has evolved into MAGA.

The reckless abandonment of civility, common sense, proceed-with-caution and thoughtfulness is alarming in this political climate, particularly when MAGA was calling for civil war if it didn't get what it wanted in the election.
